Gimee Gimee Gimee!
I've considered adding donation buttons on this blog from time to time
but never followed through with it. Then I saw
this
entry on Graeme's blog where he linked to
an
entry on Mark Evanier's blog where Mark revealed he's doing quite
well in terms of tips. So, yeah, that finally motivated me to set
up some donation buttons on the right. And I only mention this to
be up-front about the fact that I
am doing this for the money,
but I certainly don't expect that people have to contribute
anything. If you do, great, thank you, but I won't be guilting
people into helping me run the blog or anything. I don't really
have any additional expenses associated with doing the blog (I'm
hosting it through Blogger for free, and I store images on webspace
that I already had as part of my broadband service), so it's not like I
need to be reimbursed for money I'm throwing into this. There's
the time aspect, but like most bloggers, I do this because I enjoy it,
not because I expect to be compensated.
Anyway, those are my thoughts on the matter. I promise never to
bring it up again--I just wanted to lay out my reasons for adding the
shameless soliciting on the right.
EDIT: Moved the donation buttons to the bottom of the left section because they seemed to be causing problems with the links not displaying on the right for some people. Please let me know if the links still aren't showing up on the right side as they should. Thanks.
